Welp. Playa gonna play

Talib is a good player, but a real piece of shit as a human being.

Don't know what you're talking about, I posted his value score. It was the same as Chris Harris this year.

He's old as the hills but he's still really effective, and he plays the run as well as he rushes. He has had an outstanding career, props. After he retires Talib will be the best of that bunch depending if Aldon returns or not.

God, you both are reeruned.

Alot of shit talk for a team that had a total of 0 draft picks this year and 0 invites to the combine. What is it with you both?... Move on... Did a Mizzou booster give your ladies facials years ago? Trollers gonna troll.

Softball MU vs KU possible

The thing that's notable about 0 players from Texas being drafted is that one of them was the Big 12 defensive player of the year.

Among the schools that also had at least one player drafted, or more than Texas: Lindenwood, Pittsburg State, Bloomsburg (Penn.), McGill, Maine, Concordia (St. Paul), Northwest Missouri State, Saginaw Valley and Princeton.

Hey that's not fair. Majority of the MIAA could beat Kansas in football

I got an email from KU. They said they took this year's NFL draft off because they're anticipating having their athletes go #1 and #2 in this year's NBA draft.

I guess they just don't want too much exposure.

These are the accumlated career values of any "notable" MU/KU players currently playing in the NFL. I used PB's site and source.

Mizzou player in the NFL

Justin Smith: 125 (13 seasons)
Aldon Smith: 23 (2.5 seasons)
Jeremy Maclin: 29 (4 seasons)
Sean Weatherspoon: 23 (4 seasons)
Ziggy Hood: 28 (5 seasons)
William Moore: 26 (4 seasons)
Brad Smith: 20 (7 seasons, never a starter)
Sheldon Richardson: 6 (1 season)
Danario Alexander: 9 (has played in 28 games over 3 seasons, starting in 13 of them)

KU player in the NFL

Aqib Talib: 35 (6 seasons)
Anthony Collins: 13 (6 seasons)
Chris Harris: 15 (3 seasons)
Darrell Stuckey: 3 (4 seasons)
Steve Johnson: 1 (2 seasons)

I included Steve Johnson because Bambi like to use him as an example of how a KU player has been on a Super Bowl team. Steve Johnson was one of the main reasons the Broncos made the big game this year and the playoffs the year before, coming in with a 2 year total of SIX tackles.

Takeaways from the list (PB's source for value, not mine) would be that KU has two above average players in the NFL in Talib and Harris. That's it. Aldon Smith had more value in 1 season than Harris has had in his entire career thus far though, so let's keep that in perspective. Weatherspoon, Moore, Maclin and Hood have the same average value as your #1 savior Talib. When anyone with a brain looks at the numbers...it's easy to see this was just another lame attempt at complete BS from the two circle jerk twins.

I'm guessing he was referencing your previous statement in the thread that Mizzou football in the Gary Pinkel era has made minimal impact in the NFL, propping J.Smith, while failing to mention Sheldon, as if you were implying that he doesn't have the ability to make a major impact in the NFL??

Let's consider Big Shell's potential: he was a 5 star prospect out of a High School, dominated the SEC in the one year he was there, was a Top 10 pick in the NFL draft and then preceded to win the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in his first season of professional football . . . . as a Defensive Tackle.

I would think his major impact 'potential' at the pro level is looking better than most DT's that have come along in the last decade in the NFL.

To think that Aldon Smith is the only one that will be carrying the torch for Mizzou after J.Smith retires is beyond idiotic . . . .


Correction: Sheldon was pick #13, not #10 in last years draft.

On the plus side, they got to hang another Big 12-4+2 banner for all their trouble, so it was totally worth it . . . .

:thumb:

You realize this is a FOOTBALL board right? Basketball doesn't have the same weight around here as football. Nobody gives a shit about a couple of punks entering the NBA.

The takeaway is that outside of Justin Smith (who wasn't even recruited by Pinkel to my knowledge), Mizzou has made zero impact on the NFL. Marginally better than what KU's put out. When you're having a discussion about NFL talent and you're marginally better than KU, you're not a football powerhouse. But you all knew that.


No they don't, they're all lower.

I know. Which is crazy since KU's focus is basketball and not football yet the impact by KU in the pros (more Hall of Famers, more Defensive POY's, current players on playoff rosters, etc) compares very favorably to the football powerhouse that is Missouri.

Justin Smith was drafted in 2001. He's basically Dana Stubblefield without the accolades. He wasn't recruited by Pinkel.

You forgot this...

http://media.giphy.com/media/IOCXHPvn3WErm/giphy.gif

DTs aren't all that valuable, sorry. Most of them are easily interchangeable with others. A CB is a more valuable position. That's probably why Richardson and Harris had the same AV (6) last year.



What's truly idiotic: not dealing with facts and data. I don't have any interest hearing baseless opinions about things, especially from Mizzou fans who are full of irrational & biased views. One loser even bragged about a Mizzou player who never even played in the NFL. "Just the facts, m'am."

Attachment 106793

You. . . are . . . stupid.

Let's do some math again, PB. Remember...I'm using your site that calculates player value.

Aqib Talib has a cumulative score of 35 over 6 seasons. 35/6= 5.83 avg

Weatherspoon 23 in 4 seasons. 23/4= 5.75 avg

Hood is 28 in 5 seasons. 28/5= 5.6 avg

Moore is 26 in 4 seasons 26/4= 6.5 avg

Maclin is 29 in 4 seasons 29/4= 7.25 avg


So, using YOUR values, Maclin>Moore>Talib>Weatherspoon>Hood. Am I wrong?

I'm sure you will be after he spins those numbers through his Vitamix.

Deflect, Deflect, Deflect . . . . thanks for addressing the statement directly and not completely ignoring the content of the post

:thumb:

So it's acceptable if you KU's 'playas' play, but not Mizzou?

Got it.

No hypocrisy there at all . . . .

Here's how you tell who's valuable in the NFL and who isn't:

Dollars left on current contracts...

Aqib Talib $57 million
Anthony Collins $30 million
William Moore $25.9
Justin Smith $13.3 million
Sheldon Richardson $8.2 million
Chase Daniel $8.2 million
Darrell Stuckey $7.4 million
Jeremy Maclin $5.2 million
Aldon Smith $4.5 million
Sean Weatherspoon $4.1 million
Chris Harris $2.2 million
Tanner Hawkinson $1.9 million
Blaine Gabbert $1.8 million
Steven Johnson $.5 million

LMAO

I don't know what you're asking. I've addressed all the questions. I cannot address anything that doesn't have objectivity attached to it however. As for Dontari Poe: he's a good player just as Richardson is. But the DT position isn't all that valuable. If it were, the Chiefs wouldn't have suffered such a drastic drop-off when Hali/Houston left.


If Dontari was so good, why did the defense suck so badly the 2nd Half of 2013 despite him playing every game? Fact: DE/OLB/CB are the valuable defensive positions. Justin Smith & Aldon Smith are far more valuable than Sheldon Richardson.

LOL ...so a mid first round rookie who signs a five year, $20MM contract is more valuable than Richardson who *only* has $8MM left on his contract. Got it. That definitely simplifies things.

Moving the goal posts again, I see . . . . :shake:

When researching this I was actually surprised by how many mizzou players are playing in their final year of the contract. Why don't teams want to resign players from mizzou or give them long term deals? Is there something wrong with Pinkel players?

You're right, the most current Mizzou crop would have been far better playing at KU the last few years under Weis and Gill (who have CLEARLY out coached Pinkel) and much more NFL ready; with all KU's many recent NFL success stories and all . . . . my bad.

Pussy league just like the SEC

Q

No kidding. Iowa State plays nine conference games, AND Iowa from the B1G every year. Honestly we only schedule one true cupcake a year. We typically schedule someone like Tulsa/NIU/North Dakota/UNI with another spot... But I guess that's why we've had a top 5 hardest schedule every year under CPR.

Proof that KU and UT's football programs are equals:

LMAO

At a news conference held by Texas A&M's board of regents Monday to provide an update on the $450 million renovation of Kyle Field, a board member said he'd want the new name to include a reference to the 2012 Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback, who was selected in the first round of the NFL draft by the Cleveland Browns.

"My vision is that someday I hope the Aggie nation will come together and decide that we can revise the name of Kyle Field to 'Kyle Field -- The House That Johnny Built,'" board member Jim Schwertner said.

True, but you also get to play KU each year, which is the equivalent of scheduling another UNI/Tulsa/NIU every year.

Excuse me. UNI would kick the crap out of ku.

That is epically stupid. They're the best team in the state of Texas; they should start acting like it.

Sorry, was just quoting RustShack from above. No offense intended against UNI.

I have no doubt what you're saying is true.

ATM? They are, and forever will be a distant second to UT.

I was bored at work and wondered how Kyle Field got it's name so I looked it up on wikipedia.

Kind of a Texas thing to do, the state not the Uni.

It's so cute when Iowa State and Mizzou football fans talk smack on a school they couldn't even beat consistently over ~100 years of play. It's kinda like a Chiefs fan talking smack on a Chargers fan. I mean, what's the point?

Dude, kansas is so shitty at football they should abandon the program

Also, if KU runs into MU during basketball kim will have his team beast rape the jayhawk 1 and dones

Prison & Bambi in this thread.

So back to my earlier thesis on Mizzou's honest conflict with Michael Sam - their entire messageboard today is chock full of arguments over Sam and homosexuality. I.e.
http://tigerboard.com/boards/missour...ssage=11904204



MU fans have put a "happy face" on Sam's story, and you've seen it here on CP and on Facebook etc. But in truth they're conflicted because that's who they are. For the 50+ aged segment of their fanbase, this guy's constant media appearances and licking cake of his boyfriend's face are absolutely going over like a pregnant pole vaulter.

Constant media appearances? That's quite an exaggeration.

Shiny. Red. Ball.

I leave the country, this thread stays the same:

Bambi and Bitch being idiots.

Side note: Sheldon Richardson, the NFL defensive rookie of the year (which goes to the best defensive rookie, regardless of position, last time I checked) plays 34 DE, not defensive tackle.

Yep...you really didn't miss much.

I think it's interesting that a couple of pretty openly anti-gay dudes on this thread have blown what ACTUALLY happened so out of the water. it's almost as if you have imagined, for some strange and mysterious reason, things that Sam and his boyfriend did after his selection. One guy keeps calling these kisses "foreplay," and now you imagining Sam "licking" cake off another man's face.

It's a little strange how you guys are working so hard to imagine actually MORE gay than there was, considering your vehement disapproval of the gay.

An openly gay player being on a college or NFL team isn't going to magically solve every issue that people have with homosexuality. But it will certainly desensitize portions of the anti-gay crowd and make them realize that gay people are no different than straight people, despite what they were told to believe.

Where are the media appearances that Michael Sam has booked?

LMAO

lol, tigerboard.

Prison Bitch is still ChiefsPlanet's top visitor to Tigerboard

Going on Oprah.

Thread on PowerMizzou about Nick Chubb, RB for Georgia. Dude is a monster, but the more interesting post referenced his Rivals ranking, which is #6 for backs. Five of the top six are headed to the SEC. That's crazy.

1. Fournette LSU
2. Racean Thomas Auburn
3. Sony Michel Georgia
4. Elijah Hood UNC
5. Jalen Hurd Tennessee
6. Nick Chubb Georgia

I hope we get Beckner...and a few other solid DTs. We're gonna need them.

I like making informed opinions.

Let us know when you start.




http://stcommunities.straitstimes.co...ation-jump.gif

Probably not so great in that Mizzou will have to face many of them over the next several years.

Jfc this is brutal. They have been left to the wolves and the desperation is evident in the twin dipshits.

Pretty rough score for the Pokes.

KU sitting in much better light.

That's why I posted the link, so you don't have to take my word for it. I figured there might be some consternation over "cake smash" and I wasn't disappointed. Straw, meet camel's back.

Four Mizzou Teams Receive Top-10 APR Standing Nationally

May 8, 2014

COLUMBIA, Mo. - The University of Missouri football program has received national acclaim from the NCAA for its academic performance yet again. For the second-straight year, the Mizzou football team has been recognized by the NCAA for ranking in the top-10 percent in the nation in Academic Progress Rate (APR) for the 2012-13 academic year, as released by the NCAA.

In all, four Mizzou sport programs received top-10 recognition - football, women's swimming and diving, women's indoor track and field and women's outdoor track and field. That ranks Mizzou second in the Southeastern Conference in terms of most teams recognized, trailing only Vanderbilt, which was first with six. The full APR report from the NCAA will be made available May 14th, revealing detailed for all teams.

The Tiger football program was one of two from the SEC to receive top-10 recognition in the current report, joined by South Carolina. Mizzou is the only SEC football program to earn top-10 mention each of the last two years.

The recognition is nothing new for Mizzou under the guidance of Head Coach Gary Pinkel, as the Tigers have ranked at or near the top of its conference APR and Graduation Success Rate (GSR) consistently during his tenure. From Mizzou's last seven senior classes, 111-of-115 student-athletes (97%) have either received their MU degrees, or are on pace to do so, by this summer. Additionally, 11 members of the 2014 senior class will be playing their senior season as college graduates, including: Christian Brinser, David Butler, Stephen Carberry, Anthony Gatti, Matt Hoch, Jimmie Hunt, Marcus Murphy, Mitch Morse, Darvin Ruise, Lucas Vincent and Darius White.

"Certainly we're very pleased about the recognition, it's the standard that we expect at Mizzou," said Head Coach Gary Pinkel. "When I talk to parents during the recruiting process, I look them in the eye and tell them that we're going to help their son grow on and off the field, and that includes having him leave with his degree from Mizzou. We have an amazing support system here that is as good as anywhere in the country. The track record speaks for itself," he said.

The APR was developed by the NCAA in 2004 to measure the academic progress and performance of athletic programs at member institutions. The multi-year average for the latest Academic Progress Rate Report spans the last four years and institutions are awarded points when a student-athlete remains academically eligible for competition and when he or she either returns to the institution the following semester or graduates.

The Tigers' academic pursuits are aided by Mizzou's Total Person Program, a comprehensive array of tutorial and life skills services to ensure their success. The Total Person Program provides Mizzou's student-athletes with support tailored to each individual's academic needs and goals.

Nick Chubb at the Georgia state track meet
http://www.secrant.com/news/63871/49...-Vertical-Jump

Missouri had four players drafted during last week’s NFL Draft, the most for the program since six Tigers were drafted in 2009.

And six more Missouri players signed free-agent contracts in the immediate aftermath of one of the deepest drafts in NFL history, giving at least 10 Tigers a crack at making an NFL roster next season.
Here is a look at where all 10 of those players landed and the situation at their position group on the team’s current roster.

DE Kony Ealy
Carolina Panthers (second round, No. 60 overall)
• Height/Weight: 6-4, 273
• Missouri stats: Finished with eight sacks and 42 tackles, including 14 for a loss, with an interception, which he returned 49 yards for a touchdown, in 2013. Racked up 12 1/2 sacks and 95 tackles, including 27 for a loss, in three seasons.
• 2014 outlook: Ealy projects as the backup to Greg Hardy at right defensive end. Hardy, a fifth-year pro from Mississippi, finished third in the NFL last season with 15 sacks. He also had 59 tackles, including five tackles for a loss. With Charles Johnson, who had 11 sacks last season, entrenched at left defensive end,
Ealy likely was brought in to add depth to the Panthers’ pass rush and as a possible successor for Hardy or Johnson. Ealy left Missouri after his junior season.

T Justin Britt
Seattle Seahawks (second round, No. 64 overall)
• Height/Weight: 6-6, 325
• Missouri stats: With Britt paving the way, the Tigers finished 16th in the nation in rushing offense, averaging 237.9 yards per game, and total offense, averaging 490.7 total yards. Missouri averaged 6.6 yards per play last season with Britt anchoring the line at left tackle.
• 2014 outlook: Britt is a mauler. One Chiefs executive said nobody should be surprised the Lebanon (Mo.) High School graduate was selected in the second round. Fifth-year pro Russell Okung is entrenched at the starter at left tackle, but Britt should challenge second-year right tackle Michael Bowie for the starting job. Britt also could slide inside, perhaps competing for playing time at left guard with James Carpenter.

CB E.J. Gaines
St. Louis Rams (sixth round, No. 188 overall)
• Height/Weight: 5-10, 190
• Missouri stats: Picked off five passes and defended three more to go with 75 tackles, including four for a loss, and a fumble recovery for a touchdown as a senior. Finished with eight interceptions, 34 passes defended and 244 tackles, including 14 for a loss, in his career.
• 2014 outlook: Gaines, a Fort Osage graduate, joins a crowded secondary that already included starting cornerbacks Trumaine Johnson, who led the Rams with three interceptions, and Janoris Jenkins, who totaled a team-high 14 passes defended. St. Louis also spent a second-round pick on Florida State cornerback Lamarcus Joyner and has several veteran reserves. Still, Gaines figures to be in the mix for backup duty and could be in the mix for playing time in nickel and dime packages as he develops.

DE Michael Sam
St. Louis Rams (seventh round, No. 249 overall)
• Height/Weight: 6-2, 261
• Missouri stats: Earned SEC defensive player of the year after totaling 11 1/2 sacks with 48 tackles, including 19 for a loss, as well as two forced fumbles and a 21-yard fumble recovery touchdown as a senior. Finished with 18 1/2 sacks and 111 tackles, including 32 1/2 for a loss, with forced fumbles in his career.
• 2014 outlook: Sam is listed third on the Rams’ depth chart at right defensive end. He’s unlikely to displace Robert Quinn, who led the NFC with 19 sacks last season, and probably won’t ever take snaps away from former No. 2 overall pick Chris Long at left defensive end. Of course, no NFL team ever has enough pass rushers.
Nonetheless, Quinn’s backup, Eugene Sims, has 47 tackles and five sacks in the last three seasons, while Long’s backup, seventh-year veteran Williams Hayes, has 50 tackles and seven sacks last season. Essentially, that makes Sam something of an insurance policy on a team deep with pass rushers. He doesn’t have the coverage skills to play outside linebacker, which means he’ll need to show special teams value to stay in St. Louis no term.

QB James Franklin
Detroit Lions (undrafted free agent)
• Height/Weight: 6-2, 230
• Missouri stats: Despite missing four games, completed 198 of 319 passes (62.1 percent) for 2,429 yards with 19 touchdowns and six interceptions in addition to 122 carries for 510 yards and four touchdowns rushing. Finished among the Tigers’ all-time best in total offense after passing for 6,962 yards with 51 touchdowns and 25 interceptions and rushing for 1,729 yards and 21 touchdowns in his college career.
• 2014 outlook: Matt Stafford is set as the Lions’ starting quarterback, but Franklin will get a chance to compete against third-year pro Kellen Moore from Boise State and veteran journeyman Dan Orlovsky for a backup spot in the Motor City.

RB Henry Josey
Philadelphia Eagles (undrafted free agent)
• Height/Weight: 5-8, 194
• Missouri stats: After missing the entire 2012 season following a gruesome knee injury, Josey returned and led the Tigers with 174 carries for 1,166 yards with 16 touchdowns in 2013. Finished with 395 carries for 2,771 yards — a 7.0-yard average — with 30 touchdowns as well as 175 yards and a touchdown receiving in his three-year career.
• 2014 outlook: The Eagles are fairly well set in terms of its feature backs with All-Pro LeSean McCoy and Darren Sproles, an Olathe North graduate acquired by trade with the Saints, already on the roster. Josey, who declared for the NFL Draft after his junior season, has a chance to compete for a spot on the roster with third-year pro Chris Polk, former practice squad player Matthew Tucker and Toledo’s David Fluellen, who also was an undrafted free-agent signing.
Wichita native Bryce Brown was traded to Buffalo, thinning the backfield stable a bit and giving Josey, whose surgically repaired knee was cleared by NFL doctors, a better shot to make Philadelphia’s roster. Josey has the ability to catch out of the backfield and the speed to be an intriguing fit in Chip Kelly’s up-tempo offense.

WR Marcus Lucas
Carolina Panthers (undrafted free agent)
• Height/Weight: 6-4, 218
• Missouri stats: Caught 58 passes for 692 yards with three touchdowns in 2013. Snagged 130 receptions for 1,638 yards with 11 touchdowns in his career.
• 2014 outlook: Tight end Greg Olsen led the Panthers in receptions (73), receiving yards (816) and receiving touchdowns (six) last season, but the top three wide receivers are gone. Steve Smith signed with Baltimore after 13 seasons in Carolina, while Brandon LaFell went to New England and Ted Ginn Jr. wound up in Arizona via free agency.
The Panthers drafted Florida State’s Kelvin Benjamin in the first round and also signed Jericho Cotchery and Jason Avant, but there appears to be plenty of passes for the catching for a player like Lucas, a Liberty graduate.

WR L’Damian Washington
Dallas Cowboys (undrafted free agent)
• Height/Weight: 6-4, 195
• Missouri stats: Led the Tigers with 893 yards on 50 receptions with 10 touchdowns as a senior. Finished with 100 catches for 1,735 yards and 15 touchdowns in his career.
• 2014 outlook: Dallas returns its three most productive wide receivers from last season — Dez Bryant, who had 93 receptions for 1,233 yards and 13 touchdowns, along with Terrance Williams and Cole Beasley — but it’s a unit in need of an upgrade. Washington brings speed and should help stretch the field for Cowboys’ quarterback Tony Romo, giving tight end Jason Witten more room to work the middle.
Washington, a native of Shreveport, La., grew up as a Dallas fan and could prove to be a steal after he didn’t get drafted. The Cowboys cut veteran Miles Austin and lack depth with the likes of Jamar Newsome, Dwayne Harris and Devin Street, a fifth-round pick from Pittsburgh, rounding out the positional depth.

TE Eric Waters
Pittsburgh Steelers (undrafted free agent)
• Height/Weight: 6-3, 244
• Missouri stats: A devastating blocker who caught eight passes for 72 yards with a touchdown as a senior. Finished a four-year career with only 14 catches for 145 yards and two touchdowns.
• 2014 outlook: The Steelers have a ton of tight ends on the roster, but Waters’ athleticism and blocking prowess — in addition to the prospect of a club- and cap-friendly rookie contract — make him a strong possibility for Pittsburgh’s 53-man roster. That is especially true given the lack of playmakers behind starter Heath Miller.
Miller, a two-time Pro Bowler, is entering his 10th season, while the Steelers’ backups includes Matt Spaeth and David Paulson, a third-year pro from Oregon. Spaeth is a blocking specialist who is on his second tour in Pittsburgh and has caught more than nine passes in a season once in a seven-year NFL career, while Paulson has 13 catches in 32 career games. Waters will be in the mix for depth at tight end along with journeyman Michael Palmer, a fifth-year pro from Clemson, and seventh-round pick Rob Branchflower from Massachusetts.

LB Andrew Wilson
Miami Dolphins (undrafted free agent)
• Height/Weight: 6-3, 239
• Missouri stats: Racked up a career-high 113 tackles, including 6 1/2 for a loss, with three passes defended in 2013. Finished 10th all-time in Tigers history with 333 tackles, including 19 1/2 for a loss, with 1 1/2 sacks and five forced fumbles in his career.
• 2014 outlook: Miami returns all three starters at linebacker. That includes middle linebacker Dannell Ellerbe, who finished with 101 tackles last season, and weakside linebacker Phillip Wheeler, who led the Dolphins with 118 tackles in 2013, along with strongside linebacker Koa Misi, a fifth-year pro who only managed 54 tackles in 15 games.
Wilson, who developed a great relationship with Miami linebackers coach Mark Duffner prior to the NFL Draft, will be in the mix for linebacker depth with fifth-round pick Jordan Tripp from Montana. The Dolphins’ only have three other reserve linebackers — Jason Trusnik, Jelani Jenkins and Johnathan Freeny — on the current roster.

Mizzou fans...how do you feel about the Michael Sam (Posted on 5/11/14 at 12:22 pm)

Spectacle...are you embarrassed by this or proud that he represents your University?


http://www.secrant.com/rant/p/498518...chael-Sam.aspx

Who gives a ****?

I liked living in Columbia, but that link should come with a disclaimer...

It's a great place to find a job if you work for one of 3 employment fields:

1) Insurance (Shelter/State Farm)
2) Working for the school (the University or City Schools)
3) Working for the Hospital

The only other large employer in the town besides the above is MBS Book Exchange.

Very true, from what I remember.

:spock:

PB is worried teh ghey is spreading and he may catch it . . . . kind of ironic
